This may come across as a rather stupid question, but it's one of my options. I have an Eaton M-90 off of a T-Bird SuperCoupe. Has N E 1 fabricated 1 into their 13B, or N E other blower? I'm thinkin' I can mount it somewhere like where the battery is and run the belts from there. It has a maximum of like 10 lbs. of boost, so it won't be a whole lot. Probably 7 or 8. Would I need to change N E thing? Injector sizes, fuel pressure regulator, fuel pump, etc.? Can U just "pipe it up" to the AFM and go from there or will there be a computer problem? I've seen a couple of other cars that had a roots type blower mounted somewhere besides on the intake and it worked really well 4 them. N E 1 else have suggestions or comments?

A lot more fuel than a na engine trim can supply. At least get bigger secondaries like 720cc, up grade the fpr with after market, bigger fuel pump like TII or better and get a SAFC to contrl the injectors. You'll run into trouble with pinging with the higher compression rotors so you have to be carefull. I only know of a few Nas supercharged.

If you are going to go supercharger on a NA do it the right way and get the atkins rotary carburated supercharger
i know a couple guys with it and its a bolt on application and works pretty good, with a weber carb i heard you can boost up 13 or 14

Atkins also sells the supercharger for fuel injected applications now. They are currently working on a setup that will use the stock injection system. I would imagine it will be a kit that comes with the afformentioned stuff: bigger injectors, fuel pump and some kind of computer upgrade. They have some info at www.camdensuperchargers.com

Here is my take on it:
The car is already setup to be turbocharged, it already has a t2 model, No point in wasting your time SC, unless you just want to be different. Why spend thousands to have supercharged 220rwhp? You could be there in a second with a t2 at alteast half the cost. The setup is also akward, a rotary engine with its high redline can easily overspin SC, and wear out their bearings, SC are made to run on low revving engines. Rotaries and turbos are made for each other, since they have such a high exhaust output they can spool larger turbos and spool them faster.
